    Rifle Scopes New Leupold Reticle

    I'm "patiently" waiting to see this reticle, there a lot I like about the mk5 but none of the available reticles give be the warm and fuzzy. I dial 99% of my shots but like to have a minimal tree. Any clues as to what the horizontal stadia offers at least?

    M5 Mausingfield .223 function

    It was mentioned in the ARC thread but I thought I would ask separately. How many have tried the .378” bolt head? Someone mentioned their m5 ran good with .223, just wondering if this is the exception rather than the rule? I know there is a Disclaimer on the ARC site stating it may not reliably...

    Gunsmithing Source for small firing pin for Winchester M70 CRF S/A

    I currently have a m70 bolt at LRI to be bushed. My research led me to LRI or GreTan being the best choice. I'm sure GreTan does good work but I chose LRI based on work I've seen them do in the past as well as Chad's involvement here on the hide. I love the fact that he does FB live video of...

    Apple TV Podcast -delay

    The last two episodes were delayed in Google as well... Might have been something on the other end and not Apple related. Usually Google drops them at the same time as Podbean.

    Colorado Tripod - Rocky Mountain Tripod

    Any new word on these yet? Hopefully someone gets one in hand soon, I want to pull the trigger on one but really prefer to see them moving into the wild first.

    Correct, blatant violations of civil rights were never covered. With the current language officers can and likely will be sued for just about every arrest or use of force. Qualified immunity protects officers who are acting in good faith. It's not a get out of jail free card for bad actors.

    Attached to the red flag law in NM

    Qualified immunity for LEO's is gone with the signing of this legislation. Basically we can be sued for either doing our jobs or failing to do our jobs. This has nothing to do with the enforcement of "red flag" laws, this is every day work.

    This thread started out with promise of ARC awesomeness and diverged quickly away from the main intent, any updates on the complete setup Pictured?

    Tripod woes

    In my experience there is no comparison between an aluminum vs carbon fiber when it comes to stability. The aluminum legs will always have considerable more flex in them than CF legs. You can make AL work but will have to accept a bigger wobble zone. My observations from running a Manfrotto 055...

    Imported carbon fiber tripod (RT90C)

    How’s the leg stiffness? I currently run an Anvil 30 on a Manfrotto aluminum tripod and the only real wobble zone is in the legs flexing. I’ve got some time on a 3 series RRS which has basically zero wobble from the legs. I’m assuming this one should be closer to the RRS just due to the...

    Modern Winchester 70 pros and cons?

    I have two built on m70's, my match rifle is a new manufacture CRF short action and shoots and runs flawless. Factory action wise they're the best there is in my book, but with the great options of quality CRF custom actions out there now I'd go that route instead of building another. My biggest...

    7-300 PRC Initial Results - Winner

    In my opinion there are two 28NOS rounds, if your chamber has a factory length throat you are not getting the velocity range with the 195’s or any other long bullet. If you increase the freebore sojourn don’t stuff the bullet down in the case you can easily get the 3150 range without crazy...

    Sig Sauer - KILO3000 BDX LASER RANGEFINDING BINOCULARS

    Yep, that’s how mine were. Be interested to see how many of us with the same issues are at higher altitudes. The town in OR where I shipped my K3k’s for service is @154’ MSL; I’m @4250, density altitude over 8k most days.

    Sig Sauer - KILO3000 BDX LASER RANGEFINDING BINOCULARS

    My uneducated guess is that there was too much pressure inside the binoculars from the purging gas causing the focus rings to rotate outward on their own. Probably why they couldn't replicate the issue at near sea level. I have a good video of the focus rings spinning on their own but can't seem...
